Miss Adryona Gaston is finishing her studies year at Cleveland State University, majoring in music while minoring in dance. Her array of creative abilities is what confirmed her heart and determination lie in creative arts administration and fashion. 

She began her dance journey at the age of six, doing Hip-Hop and Ballet at Chenalute Dance Studio in Trotwood, OH.

During her high school years, Gaston was a trumpeter in her high school marching band, a principal dancer + lead vocalist in her theatre program, a vocal worship leader for the high school service at Vineyard Columbus, a mentor and much more! 

Because of those experiences, she can share her art and love for dance with the students all around the Northeast Ohio area. 

Currently, Miss Adryona is beginning her journey as a small business owner where the focus and mission is to uplift local women of color through her magazine called Black Girl Living.  

After college, she hopes to get a full-time performance and teaching position at an institute or dance academy, as well as continue to grow her business. 

Her long term goals include traveling the world to dance and create choreography.
